This certainly was a challenge! Kinda felt like I was doing this one w/ one hand tied behind my back. Every time I'd think of something I wanted to use, I check the list and see a big NO next to it. Shoot!
I followed the rules and I'm not sure I'm entirely happy w/ this. But I used only 1 stamp, no cb, no dp. I also did not use any ink, no embellishments and only 1 tool. This is like really roughing it.
I scribbled makers direct on the stamp, misted and stamped onto white c/s. I repeated this onto another piece of white and cut out the flowers and a couple of leaves to layer onto the other image. I used a little marker around the edge and attached to a bubblegum colored c/s. Then I used a large tip on my Japanese screw punch and did all the hole around the border. Attached this to white then to green and another white. Used a smaller tip on the screw punch and went around again. Then attached to the rose and then to a white card. Some of the punched circles were glued to the corners of the image. TFL
